    The first book is highly recommended; it's a bit of a pseudo-narcissistic romance, incredibly sweet, with a well-told plot and lots of twists. The second book is about a "marriage change," featuring two characters with different genders, essentially antagonists. The third is a romance novel where both the male and female leads have different genders that they can switch between; the premise is very fresh, and the early chapters are quite good, though the ending is a little weak. If you can accept that, you can read it. The fourth book features two male leads; it's incredibly sweet, with very delicate emotions. Later, during a competition, the characters switch to their main gender.

    The first book, "The God of Drama," is still at the top of the charts. Its power is undeniable. The protagonist, Chen Ling, will commit suicide to defeat anyone she can't beat, as long as there's any expectation (but this book has a lot of angst and is quite cruel to the protagonist; 3911, I'll bet my life with you! My Ah Ling!!!). The second book has the male and female leads simultaneously transmigrating into one body, taking turns controlling it (no romance, but the roommate and the little cake are very sweet). The male lead is a second-time transmigrator, extremely strong, and prone to killing entire families. The female lead is an ordinary, relatively saintly woman, but that's her way. Then, when the female lead controls the body, one second she's running away and reasoning, the next second the male lead has possessed her and killed them all [laughing]. The third book is a prequel to the second book's male lead, only about 50 chapters long. You must read it together with the second book, otherwise you'll find there's no sequel.

    Below are the protagonist's usual alternate accounts, switching to his main account when danger strikes [licking screen]. The first book's protagonist was incredibly intelligent even before he had his memories, leading everyone; after awakening, he became the God of the End [licking screen]. The plot is exceptionally well-written, highly recommended, and some of the other characters also have some steamy moments [admiration].
